Offering approximately 1,190 square feet of inviting living space, this home seamlessly blends vintage character with modern comfort. Beautiful hardwood floors, classic architectural details, and a gorgeous front porch set the tone, while thoughtful updates—like double-pane windows, an indoor utility room, two full bathrooms, and updated kitchen and baths—make it truly move-in ready. The spacious backyard is a hidden gem—fenced, with mature trees, room to entertain or garden, and a detached storage shed for all your tools, bikes, or hobbies.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
